I talked to my chosen sister, and we hadn’t been in touch for some time. I try hard to keep up with those I love, because I know how daunting life can be. She reminded me of something I wrote earlier. I wanted to share it with you too. Be Affirmed
My mental health seesaws
And all I can do to keep propelling upward is remember moments filled with awe
Rainbow ropes that dragged me from troughs
Love filled hugs from Amazonian beings
White handkerchiefs
with hearts embroidered on the fabric
Used to dust my shoulders off
In desperate moments, when my energy is ever low
My butt is on the ground
The ancestors join together
to push the other seat down
Gently
Kindly
Like a wind with no sound
Allowing me to rise again
They remind me to look around
I thank them, for allowing me to see
My heart & mind deserves recovery ❤️🩹
Here’s to healing & self care
I pray you the same when you’re down there
Feeling down on your luck
Or everything just appears to just suck
May grace & mercy swoop you up
